End-Stage doesn’t mean it’s the end.

CT vs Breast cancer risk
I need to have another CT and am worried about radiation exposure to my breasts. My mom had breast cancer at 85 and lived cancer-free to the ripe age of 96 cancer-free. However, she didn't have another cancer.

Low muscle mass
Hi, I have been on a set dose that is as optimal as can be expected - for approx 2 years. Levaxin 150 mcg Liotyronin 5 mcg (+an extra 5 mcg once in a while, when my pulse goes down to mid-50s). My question is if anyone else has low muscle mass, and difficulty increasing muscle mass? Does anyone know

FutureLearn Liver Courses and Mental Health
Some of you will know of the two online liver courses that were run by FutureLearn. These were "Liver Disease: Looking after Your Liver" and "Liver Transplant". I, like so many have done both these courses, scoring 91% and 98% which surprised me at the time. I was therefore disappointed to learn
